i'm so extremely irrationally annoyed by people not knowing what various terms mean and using them incorrectly like i feel like that's such an asshole thing to care about but oh my god stop

The urge to vent on here just so I can let it out but the humiliation and embarrassment of being vulnerable where other people can see.

absolutely loving your kunidazai analysis chart and also your kunikida analyses in general!!! hoping to read more

it still saddens me that skk fans will stop at no one, not even the author who gave them everything, to get what they want..

AAAAAAAAA THANK YOU!!!!

I'm glad you like it, when I start getting into analyses I feel like I become less coherent and just feel like this 90% of the time

I do not plan on stopping being unhinged about Kunikida or Kunidazai any time soon. Analyzing BSD is fun between analyzing the series as it is, and also fun looking at the IRL author's life and work and trying to find potential information that could be relevant to the characters.

Also yea about SKK fans they are ummm... I feel like this might come across as being over dramatic but I genuinely haven't been in a fandom this bad at shipping and mischaracterizations since I was into Hetalia. Not all SKK shippers obviously, but there is an extremely loud portion of SKK shippers who are some of the most immature and toxic shippers I've seen in a long time.

I do not believe SKK shippers who are like this are actually fans of BSD, I think they're just fans of the ship. They don't care about BSD outside of SKK shipping and maybe other popular ships like SSKK or RanPoe.

People intentionally misinterpreting Asagiri-sensei's words to boost their flavorless ship kinda irks me. No he isn't being possessed by a SKK shipper every time he tries to write KNDZ, no he isn't prioritizing SKK because its "the better ship", and no its not like he doesn't know what series he writes and all the SKK bait he's put in it. He quite literally said something along the lines of "I want to write the Kunikida-Dazai duo more, I think I could write them endlessly, and I hope to make Kunikida more active in the story again. Kunikida and his duo with Dazai got pushed to the side because my producer wants me to write Chuuya."

IDK if this is gonna get me crucified but I am starting to believe that SKK is kinda ruining BSD. Not because of the duo itself but rather the push to prioritize them bc of money, it takes away from developing other characters. Maybe I'm just an angry biased Kunikida fan, but getting confirmation that SKK and Chuuya are the reason why he's been shafted stings.

And then shippers threatening Asagiri-sensei over him saying the obvious, that SKK isn't gonna be canon? We need to actively put down behavior like this. Its not only gonna ruin the quality of the manga, but it can cause it to be cancelled entirely if he feels like his life is threatened if he continues.

IDK at the end of the day I hope whatever plans Asagiri has for Kunikida end up being really cool and I hope its not ruined because of immature and insatiable SKK fans.

Gear 5 luffy's laugh is so contagious I just hear the drums and go insane how does this work. What did he do to me

[bleue-flora]

I don’t think I’ll ever get over how Sapnap just jumps to the book as if his friend’s suffering meant nothing, as if the Revival Book not the torture was the big takeaway (even though he should have known about the book already)…

[clip] SAPNAP: “Dream, I told you to stay in there, didn’t I?”
DREAM: “…What are you saying”
SAPNAP: “I told you to stay in there. Why did you get out?”
DREAM: “What do you mean, ‘why did I get out?!’”
SAPNAP: “Why did you get out?!
DREAM: “Oh, you want me to rot?!—I was getting tortured. You want me to rot in prison forever?!”
SAPNAP: “You’ve been tortured?—Who is torturing you?… You were getting tortured?”
DREAM: “Yeah, Quackity was torturing me.”
SAPNAP: “Quackity was torturing you?… What do you mean he was torturing you? Like literally torturing you?��
DREAM: “Yes!—He was trying to get the revival book and so he was torturing me.
SAPNAP: “The revival book?…What revival book?”
DREAM: “It’s a long story.”
SAPNAP: “Do you have it on you now?”
DREAM: “No, I don’t…”
SAPNAP: “Where is it?”

Not Purpled’s reaction of ‘that couldn’t have happened because they don’t let anyone in there’ not Foolish’s reaction of ‘is that true, Sam?’ but ‘what book? do you have it now? where is it?’ not shock or concern for his friend but greed for the very thing Dream was tortured for…

I've been trying to figure out a dynamic between neve and rye that I find more compelling, because right now there's not much of anything there for me to sink my little teeth into. but I think I've landed on something delicious with the idea that especially after minrathous gets fucked, rye looks at neve and sees myrna -- someone he feels he keeps letting down horribly no matter how hard he tries not to and can't quite achieve the approval of/connection with that he wishes so it's better to just pull away completely and disengage rather than stay in that unshifting shame. neve is (very understandably) measured and distant with him after what happened, and he's flashing back to his student days of myrna gazing at the perpetually hungover heartbroken heap of a person of him on the other side of her desk every time he missed the deadline of a paper or project like '...can we at least both agree that this is. a bit disappointing. especially considering your potential.' (and him all smudged black eyeshadow and numb ruefulness being like 'sure that's a very kind way to put it myrna thank you'.)

aside from the 'if I let him get too deeply into this he'll go the way of brom and it'll be all my fault (again)' element, neve thinks rye is dismissing her and her city/being a bit callous in the same way he was after varric's death (listen. how fucking wild must rook's reaction to losing a beloved mentor seem to the rest of the crew who aren't seeing the blood magic paper doll ghost varric the whole time, especially those who got to see them interact. you WOULD think 'there's something wrong with this guy. putting the job first is one thing just not seeming to react at all is another this is fucking freaky', wouldn't you, especially after seeing the warmth in that dynamic in action beforehand.) perfect storm of two people who grit their teeth and turn inwards in pain deciding that not talking about it is their best bet (NEWSFLASH: IT ISN'T) lmao

(rye spent his last year of watcher training on a mostly joyless bender and then got it together enough to finish the eternal orb project last moment in a fevered near-sleepless week instead of the half a year that was intended. emmrich is both astounded and distressed to hear this. "a week? but -- but that is an astounding accomplishment rook!! and also why in the maker's good light would you ever do that to yourself?" ("well you see there was no one to stop me from doing it like that but me. and under those conditions these things tend to happen".) rye was working through/looking up stuff around transitioning and doing every kind of OTHER high level watcher research through that whole time, but ultimately he's an excellent watcher and a terrible student, at least under traditional methods. adhd from here to the fucking moon. touched by something akin to divine inspiration in moments of high tension that pulls all the threads into one coherent unbreakable cord, a bit of a frayed mess in most other settings. in our world he'd be dropping out of a masters program at the very last hurdle in this moment maker bless and protect him)

Okay but this is kinda the thing I love about the fnaf lore

When you look at it, it’s a clear story of a man driven to murder by grief, he gets a taste for blood, then his son and eventually his ex business partner work to put his victims to rest and make him atone for his sins

The fun part is when you zoom in.

There are so many tiny details that it’s like puzzle pieces, and trying to fit them together to not just understand, but know the bigger picture is the fun of the fnaf lore.

Knowing the lore of other games or piece of media is theorising and all that, sure, but with fnaf it genuinely feels like a field of active research. You could unironically write a thesis paper on the fnaf lore (matpat’s done so many times over), and it’s all still interesting?

We know so little but what we do know is researched to hell and back, and I love the thrill of it.

Because it’s a part of my personality at this point, I have to talk about how security breach fumbled this.

The other games were vague, but if you looked you’d find something. You could come to many of the conclusions that theorists have today through analysing the games without the books. They help, but it’s not required. You could figure out things about william’s family, you could pinpoint dates, you can even go so far as to accurately guess the order of william’s victims.

But with security breach, they looked at people enjoying the vague lore and thought “oh that’s what they want - vague lore! Clearly they don’t care about the fact that there’s actual logic and substance behind it and that it’s not vague and convoluted and contradictory for the sake of being vague and convoluted and contradictory!” So they made it vague convoluted and contradictory for no real reason. Vanessa does nothing but is really important and threatening we swear and she’s dead but what there are two Vanessas???

Why are the staff bots possessed? Idk we thought it was cool imagery, we’ll think about it later.

Oh hey the last three games brought afton back and they were really well received, let’s do that again (even though people complained about him in pizzeria simulator, was praising ucn for putting the story of afton to a close and, praising help wanted for introducing a new main villain of the series)

Wait our game has to have a plot? Uhhh Freddy glitched (for some reason) Gregory doesn’t trust Vanessa (for some reason) the animatronics are all evil now (for some reason (oh hey this is explained! (Even though the explanation is explained with (for some reason)))) oh also kids are going missing (gotta have missing kids) and also uhh the ending to fnaf 6? Yeah you know the game acclaimed for it’s story and one of the best endings in video game history? Yeah none of it actually matters and literally every major change it made was reversed. Every single one. (For some reason)

I’m sorry I just really hate security breach

I have so many thoughts on the fnaf trailer

To preface: oh my god it’s such a good teaser, I can’t wait for the full trailer.

My main two hopes is that they really let the animatronics be lifeless for a good while. That’s what makes them scary, give them the glowing eyes once that creepiness has started to wear off later in the movie.

And I hope it gets really trippy. The scene with Mike in the woods with the missing children just screams dream sequence and I really hope the movie dips into the more psychological side of the franchise.

Some other thoughts (will be updated later, don’t worry)

William looks so old! I really hope they nail him, he’s the essence of the franchise. I really hope they make him like a friendly old man but reeeally threatening when in “murder mode”. I don’t want to just be afraid of him, I want him to make me sick. William is a really twisted man, I really hope they go all out with it (also please show the springlock scene oh my god I want it so bad I want it to be in full graphic detail I wanna be traumatised by seeing this man torn to shreds)

There being a character called Mike, and a character called Vanessa, is so funny, because most likely both of them are original characters.

I really hope they keep the names of the missing children (if we find them out at all). Those are Gabriel, Fritz, Susie, Jeremy, and (most likely) Cassidy. I also hope Susie is the first of them to die (I’m fine with the large lore changes but it’d be so cool if they kept the smaller details that casual viewers wouldn’t really think about but signal to fans that they know the source material and really care about it)

I’ll update this (either edits or reblogs) as I have more thoughts

[mangysah]

one part of me is a bit upset that mogami arc isn’t recognized in full ever again and we don’t get to see anyone bring it up even though it’s like definitely traumatizing and can be talked about in one way or the other, but the other part of me is also upset that people seem to not understand the full significance of the arc and chalk it up to “mob sad boy forever…” instead of the fact that bc of this arc he is so grateful for his actual life and the people he’s surrounded himself with

[lecliss]

I'll never be able to take the theory that Vincent is Sephiroth's real father seriously cuz I cannot stress enough how important I think it is to the plot that Vincent wanted to fuck Lucrecia and did not get to.

[jonnestt]

I thought the Orville was a parody.

How in the fuck does a parody have one of the most internally consistent concept of time travel I have seen in ages?!

desperately need tiktok ethel cain fans to know how stupid they are

[subway-boss-jericho]

I don't think I'll ever be a proper Content Creator because of the way my brain works, but my biggest goal is to somehow make a story that makes someone so mentally ill about a thing that they can't think straight. As I do. Every couple weeks or so. Someday it will happen and I will do skitter around dancing and cheering wildly on the subway platform in my brain

[boyapologist]

no but like can you fucking IMAGINE how much shit people would get if they turned "all women should die" into pop culture slang. do you realize how bizarre that sounds when you invert the genders. that's what I was talking about on that post. you guys just read the word misandry and foam at the mouth because you need to score your online moral superiority points by stating how much you believe it's not real

nah but why tf they bringing mama to la?
